Joe<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Shaw, you wanker with a penchance for old wrinkled women, you are wrong and avoiding the problem will not be accepted. While I complete agree that no Knight should be forced into accepting any regular battle, I firmly believe that the traditions of the Pool, of which you are their main defender, preclude the ignoring of a Blood Hamster from another Knight. Now you volmitous mass, you oversized hairy rodent, I still call upon Lord Lorak and the Old Ones for an official ruling. Until then I shall continue to despise you not only for the Morman Wives, but also your craven cowardice in this matter. And this is what you pass along to your meaningless squires? Feh!

As I reread this completely abhorant post of this craven coward, (the now unbolded) Shaw, I was agast that none of the Old Ones took notice. Well, I never expected Peng to notice in his druken stupor, but I expected better of Seanachaiand Berli. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>The evidence of Shaw's unbelievable behavior is below: That's right PShaw you bilious bloated ungulate carcass on the side of the road.

I call upon the Old Ones and Lord Lorak to pass judgement on this pathetic swine. A knight cannot deny a Blood Hamster match, beside I'm curious to see of Shaw will keep his mantra of "winning is bad, when the sig file is on the line". I await your decision.

How about getting Fionn and Claymore to finishing their AAR. That would be cool! Second, a trivial matter. I was going to review the movies from Fionn vs. Carnes (calvary major) but all the files are in version 1.02. Now my CD came with 1.03 and if I run the movie is says the file must be updated. Is there anyway to fix or do somfink?

Treeburst, Send me your data, and I'll find the standard dev, etc. IF you want.

A great tactic that got used against me in a URBAN setting. Guy brought three flamethrowers in the middle of town and set every building I could use to approach the VL on fire. The only way to get rid of the burning building is to drop arty on it, but the big block buildings just don't like to get blown up much.

You buck-toothed, where's my trailer house, Texas loser. I sent your file the very next day. I just resent it because I don't want to you have any excuse,;you simpering, BBQ, Cowboy Fan!

I see you convinently left out the ass kicking your receiving at my heavy hand, you worthles Tejas git! Send me your surrender, foo!

Bog, Gaaaranteeedd, or your money back! Make a winter scenario and drive around any tank until it bogs. Then bring another and try to push, it will work. As a matter of fact, I'll send you the movie file to look for yourself.

You most certainly can. Right now in a game, I have a Lynx that was immobilized by artillery behind a house. Well since I want it suppress some infantry, I'm using a 250/1 to push it out from behind the house. Guess what! It worked and now is happily chewing up infantry. Right Speedy?

I get so F**K'N tired of that bull****. I looked at that thread, hell I even posted on the Mother! There were certainly old hatreds between people that had nothing to do with the topic at hand. In general the arguements, both for and against that stupid KIA BMP thread were reasonable. I hope that pussy Tiger does leave. Jesus H. Christ, maybe we should hold his hand and feed him sugar because he makes mods. If that had been a newbie making that pathetic gesture, he would have been laughed out the door. Feh on them all I'm beginning to wonder why the hell I even look at the Outerboards anymore! ------ I still need a scenario, Berli, Mark IV, anyone?

Two complete and seperate requests for you heathen out there. 1. I need a battle make by one you hairy creatures to send to Elvis 2. I would like to try TCP/IP tonight. I'm eastern time and I'm here til midnight my time. Email me and I'll get to kill you in real time. OUTSTANDING!

Seanachai, Such rumination should be reserved for wintertime in the land up North. When the wind has a bite to it and leaving flesh uncovered leads quickly to frostbite. Then and only then should you sit back with a nice warm brandy and think on such heady topics. It all would have worked out if you had only told us that you "feel our pain." Then your approval rating would rise and all would be forgiven. In reality the only reason the wrath of Shaw was delivered unto your poor besotted head was fear. You see you offered the winner a status equal to his own. Such prominance to an unknown could not and was not tolerated. That is not to say that exceptions will not be recognized. I'm quite sure that if we could get Steve to post here he would be granted status equal to an Old One, for his masterful disertations on a wide variey of subjects. --- Updates: MrSpkrand I have resumed this bloody computer-picked game. Let me tell you trying to assault a town with five Hellcats and only 81mm FOs is a bit of a stretch, but I have prevailed and he is Right out! JDMorse has asked for a ceasefire in our "Move it or Lost it". I have denied that as I'm about to capture a bridge and the briefing said that would be impossible. I hate to continue killing his pixelated soldiers but follow-thru is follow-thru. Sir Speedy is dying in droves, but he killed one of my Panthers. That upsets me. Expect my answer delivered upon a 120mm shell...shortly! Marlow obviously has cracked the sourse as a lone PZIv who three turns ago, crest a hill fired one shot, looked at the three Shermans facing it and ran away. This turn it crested the hill took three shot and killed three Sherman's. Marlowis obviously cheating and its sad to see my former sponser sink so low. I have decided, that since I seem to be understanding Elvis that I will start killing him. I would like one of our esteemed...well, fellow kaniggets to develop a balanced map and forces to send to me. Doesn't matter historical or non-historical. I will forgo the use of numbering with Elvis as I understand the ravages of Sleep-Deprivation and the fact that he has a minimum of six-weeks with no "Slap & Tickle" not counting the last three months of denial! Seanachai, I have still considering destroying you just because the Air Force has once again sent me to North Dakota and that is WAAAYYY to close to a living you. Enjoy these last few days, for when I come for you it won't be pretty!

the stench...

10 reasons why this trolling sack of ****e should be pummeled. 10. Olebooya, the same sound like a Norweigan talking about ice fishing. 9. Reading this utter tripe is taking away valuable time from both the MBT and CM. 8. Brittany may not play CM, but she will love a guy who can master his pentetrator. 7. No but given Peng copious amounts of alcohol and you can take his copy of CMBB 6. Peng's favorite game is actually Smear the Queer, you volunteering to hold the football? 5. Moller, you know you die in the end don't you? 4. Actually you dolt, he spends more time regulating, "KIA BMPS NEEDED...Flame away!" The Cess is self-regulating. 3. Seanachaiapparently you used a polysyllabic word in the rules post. You know the SSN's are so easily discouraged. 2. He's got us there, apparently we need to post wit fellow kaniggits. L1k S0mE D1sss! w00t! The number 1 reason olebooya should be drawn and quartered. 1. BTS loves us, because the understand the means, motive, and wit behind the Pool you nimrod! And now as the cold steel lock approaches I say to thee.... Hi MOM!

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Elvis: Wildman has the strongest grasp on my dementia.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I'm not sure whether to be horrified that I have somehow jumped into Elvis' mind, ala that movie about John Malcavic's head; or charge him the $300 rate most shrink require. Either way I must go shower as the mere thought of understanding Elvis is most disheartening. I shall consider sending you a setup to erase the blot on my memory.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Mr. Johnson-<THC>-: Then just keep your dead guy BMPs as stock, how they look now. If your kids are old enough to download the mod, install it, and play with the new "Option", then they are probably old enough to use it right?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Ok, I'll jump. So by that arguement, since an eight year old can figure out how to turn off the safety of a gun, load the clip, and pull the trigger he/she should be able to carry a gun? Since at 12 they can reach the gas petal and the steering wheel they should be able to drive, right? That is an unsupportable arguement.

Well, several interesting views here. I will be taking the calm, middle of the road approach, started by others and ignored my most. 1. First lets have a clarification of terminology. "Combat" vs. "War". Here is the crux of the problem. For many CM is a combat simulation game, defined as "A computer program that allows me to approximate the Tactical situation faced by a typical unit/person in WWII's Western Front. If approached from that point of view, the addition of extra "gore" would not only be unnecessary but horrific. A modern example is SIMNET used by the Army to train its soldiers, the focus is the tactical situation and not the body condidtion that results from fight. To this point of view "war" is the situation that is above and beyond the "combat" game. "War" is the 1000yd stare, holding your buddies entrails in your hands; all things that they do not want in a computer game. 1a. The other side views "War" as a combat simulator. Battle or combat is a vital part of "War", but the results of that combat are also vital. To them combat and causality cannot be seperated. To them viewing "battle" without viewing "War" is trying to look at only one side of a coin. 2. These two points of view are diametrically opposed and cannot be reconsiled. Just accept that fact and move on. 3. The technical issues are many. You would have to have a seperate BMP for each infantry, Crew, and nationality. Add the that the next question is one that was pointed out earlier. In our search for more realism someone would want different BMPs for HE kills, flamethrower kills, etc. The work BTS needs to do grows exponentally. Not good from a job effeciency point of view. 4. My personal view: In the past I would have agreed with Tiger, but now I cannot. To me the determining factor are my two boys. Is this something that I want to see? To me more focus on the bloody results of combat is not where I want to take my kids, in fact until they were 16+ I probably wouldn't even let them play BTS. Can you believe that me a staunch gun-supporting Republican, I must be going soft. What I would require is them to watch Saving Private Ryan before. As an adult I can understand the difference between a game and reality, and do not glorify the game at the expence of reality. I know that occasionally as I play CM I have to sit back and thing about what just happened in a movie. I watch that squad of 12 men get mowed down in under 30 sec, and I have to remind myself of just how awful and horrible it would have been to really have been there. I don't need a bloody dead guys on the ground to remind me, and if this were available I would never download the mod. 4. Choice is great and BTS has choosen, and choosen a direction I appauld. I also respect and really think about the discussions I read here. I disagree with many of you, but you points of view are generally well represented and force me to validate my POV. Remember that when the flames start to get higher baby, getin' higher baby, ain't never commin' down. (sorry just heard that song on the radio)

As any father can tell you Elvis is suffering from Sleep-deprevation. He has deleved into that mystery we solumnly call Fatherhood. With unwitting enthusiasm he volunteered to get up twice a night to feed the noisy kidlet. He now stumbles around like an extra on the movie "Night of the Living Dead," and pretends to post coherently. A sleep-deprived Elvis is worse that a drunk Peng.

No the tank had been stationary for almost five turns and the infantry were in plain sight. The reason I posted this horrendous topic again was to point out the problem in a vain attempt to prod BTS into a tirade about how they know of the problem and have a fix for it in CMBB. I know, way too much hostility from work spilling over into my posts. BAD CM'er......BAD......

The biggest problem with adding blood is sales. If I remember correctly no animation or picture of blood and violent kills can be sold in certain countries. Much like swastikas are not allowed in Germany and elsewhere. Plus if they EVER went retail they just bumped up the rating from PG to R. That is a good reason not to do it, imagine no one in Germany being able to purchase the game!

As much as I'm loath to start a thread even resembling a GROG topic. Did or has BTS answered the tank shoots smoke at infantry when targeted by the player? Ex. M4, I target a squad in the trees. He spend the entire 60 sec shooting five smoke rounds in the area. For those lackwits who have "Do a search" on a macro key. I tried, I waited, I waited, I waited, page didn't load. To help with the troubleshooting the other M4 in the game targeted a squad on its own and fired HE. Logic loop gone horribly wrong? CMBorg playing with my mind?

My Lard Lorak, your elfness. While your playing with your quill mark down the topplement of Croda by yours truly. My first ever Pool game finally finished with Croda comming to the realization every FJ on the map running in the wrong direction is a BAD thing. Wildman: Winner (89 points) Croda: What else? (11 points) Numbers added to irritate Elvis

Well not really but it always worked for a President who will remain nameless. While you may try to cover up your inadequacies with unwarrented and petty attacks (are there any other kind?) on my august personage, the Pool knows the truth about your Peng Platinum Card. You only called to have a perfectly legitimate charge cancelled due to your own fiscal irresponsibility. Yes, we all know that you are the reason for the rolling black outs in California. You needed that extra $19.99 to support your Grog Porn habit. You may deny it, but energy record accessed by Lawyer of the the Italian Title shows your constant 24 hours a day viewing of disgusting Triple G web sites is pulling unforseen MegaWatts of power thru the grid. Your paltry attempt to place the blame on my head is met with the derision it deserves. To ease my eyes and fingers in having to respond to your Grog drool, I will grind your semi-tanned pointy head under my heel. The setup is on the way, you malignant SURFER DUDE!
